CVE-2026-14522

Unauthenticated command injection via CRLF characters

Published Jul 30, 2026 · Updated Jul 30, 2026

OS command injection in IBM App Connect Enterprise allows remote attackers on an adjacent network to execute arbitrary commands. IBM attributes the flaw to improper neutralization of CRLF characters but has not identified the affected interface or code path. No credentials or user interaction are required, but the attacker must reach an adjacent network; exploitation grants command execution with the service's privileges.
